That word meet is a really interesting word, the Greek word that's translated into English meat there. It's the word. It was used in the time of the writing of the New Testament when Paul was writing this. For instance, in the city of Rome, if a dignitary was coming or say a great general went off to a distant land and and and won a great victory and he's coming back to Rome, they had a ceremony where the people of Rome would go outside the city and would meet this dignitary and escort the dignitary back into the city. That's what the word means. It means to meet and escort back into or to the location.
